Brief summary (registry, in English)

1. Proving that Budesonide DR in combination with ACEI is more effective than placebo in reducing proteinuria. 2. To assess whether treatment with Budesonide DR is better than treatment with Prednisone in reducing proteinuria in the study population.

AI-kivonat: who the study is looking for

Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for children aged 8-17 years with primary IgA nephropathy confirmed by kidney biopsy and protein in the urine. It compares budesonide DR with placebo and with prednisone.

Age
8 to 17 years
Sex
Boys and girls can both join.
Disease stage
Primary IgA nephropathy diagnosed on kidney biopsy, with proteinuria >200 mg/day or protein-creatinine ratio (UPR) >0.2 g/g in three tests.
Earlier treatment
No treatment, or treatment with ACEI/ARB. Any steroid or immunosuppressive treatment must have ended at least 2 months earlier.
Biomarker or test result
Proteinuria >200 mg/day or protein-creatinine ratio (UPR) >0.2 g/g in three tests. A negative pregnancy test is needed at the start of treatment.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Secondary forms of IgA nephropathy, such as IgA vasculitis or Crohn's disease
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis in the course of IgAN
  • GFR < 60 ml/min according to Schwartz at randomization
  • Steroid or immunosuppressive treatment now or less than 2 months before screening

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from EU CTIS (euclinicaltrials.eu) and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • currently or less than 2 months before the screenig used systemic steroid therapy or immunosuppressive treatment such as: azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, cyclosporine A

Other illness

  • secondary forms of IgA nephropathy, e.g. nephropathy associated with IgA vasculitis (IgAVN), IgA nephropathy in the course of Crohn's disease
  • chronic diseases that, in the opinion of the researcher, may affect the course of treatment, e.g. tuberculosis
  • severe heart disease
  • active peptic ulcer disease of the stomach and/or duodenum
  • history of prednisone intolerance

Lab values

  • GFR < 60 ml/min according to Schwartz at the time of randomization

Other

  • pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis in the course of IgAN
  • cataract, glaucoma

Who the study is looking for

  • obtaining consent from the parent/legal guardian and the patient to participate in the study
  • age 8-17 years
  • primary IgA nephropathy diagnosed on kidney biopsy
  • no treatment or treatment with ACEI/ARB
  • steroid treatment or immunosuppressive treatment completed at least 2 months previously
  • proteinuria >200 mg/day or protein-creatinine ratio (UPR) >0.2 g/g in three tests
  • negative pregnancy test result (urine platelet) at the time of qualification to start treatment
